Type of work: Comprehensive environmental analysis study. 

Environmental impact assessment of the possible negative effects of pulp mills, quantifying them in a particular way (for c / environmental impact) and globally (due to their possible accumulation and enhancement), highlighting their possible degree of reversibility and the level sensitivity to natural conditions. Specific Objectives: • Quantification and weighting of the environmental effects due to water pollution, due to atmospheric contamination (gases, smells, noise, etc.), or due to alteration of social, economic and cultural aspects; • Economic quantification of the needs for mitigation, restoration, rehabilitation or compensation of the environmental effects on the physical, biological and social environments; • Preparation of an environmental management plan that includes the necessary monitoring, alert and contingency components in the event that the original projects are not modified and that one or more pollution events exceed the forecasts of the companies that own the undertakings. The analyzes and solutions are oriented towards schemes compatible with the ecological, economic, social and cultural sustainability of the region.
